Connect Terraform

Codreum uses a short-lived connect code to link your local Terraform environment to Codreum Registry. You fetch the code from the portal, then run one command locally.

Step 1 — Get a connect code

  • Go to Licenses (requires login).
  • Select an active license.
  • Click Connect Terraform and copy the command.

Step 2 — Run the command locally

# Run on the machine where you run Terraform
codreum connect --code CT-xxxxxxxx

After connecting, Terraform can download modules from registry.codreum.com. If the code expires, generate a new one from the portal.

Use the module

Add the module to your Terraform configuration: 

terraform {
  required_version = ">= 1.3.0"
}

module "dns_monitoring" {
  source  = "registry.codreum.com/codreum/dnsciz/aws"
  version = "1.0.0"

  # ...your variables here...
}

Variables

Start with the minimum and expand. Keep your first run simple: region + hosted zone(s).

Recommended pattern

  • Begin with only required variables.
  • Apply once and verify resources are created successfully.
  • Enable optional features gradually.

Troubleshooting

Terraform cannot download the module

  • Run codreum connect --code ... again (codes expire).
  • Confirm Terraform runs on the same machine where you ran the connect command.
  • Confirm your license is active in Licenses.

Registry access & authentication

Codreum Registry is private. The portal issues a short-lived connect code, and the local workflow configures Terraform registry credentials without exposing long-lived secrets in the browser.
